I currently have the starter version of student home office 2010. Previously I had the 2007 version which had the Bradley Hand ITC Font (and some others) that are not included on the 2010 version. I wrote a really large document using that font and need to get it back. There are different sites that offer free downloads but I am trying to avoid spamware and spyware etc. If possible, please let me know where to download a reliable trouble free Bradley Hand ITC font for Microsoft Home Student Office 2010. Thank you. JBW

    On any given machine, I have Windows Update configured to notify me when updates are available. I choose those I need (because I have parts of several versions of Office installed on my XP machines, I get offered a lot of updates that aren't applicable, such as Junk Mail Filter updates for several version of Outlook) and download and install them. I've never had any problem.

    Thanks, thats good to know. I'm going to uninstall the 2010 starter version before I load up Home Student Office 2007. Did you experience any problems with auto updates with Office 2007? Mine would install the updates but couldn't configure them after the reboot. I had over a years worth of failed updates in my update log which led to registry problems, which is why I bought a new machine.

    I had Office 2007 installed on Windows 7 before upgrading to Office 2010. The package doesn't list Windows 7 because Word 2007 came out before Windows 7. Windows 7 will run Office versions back to at least 2003, probably XP.

    Im thinking I should be bold and load 2007. However, the system requirements dont list Windows 7.You mentioned its transferrable but I might have to activate it by phone? I have the disc and product key, and it mentions Windows server 2003 or higher operating systems. Do you think it'll load ok and if it doesn't, do you think it will simply say so and not cause a trainwreck?

    The fonts will be in the Fonts folder in Windows. It may be a Hidden folder. The font filenames are sometimes hard to recognize, so you may want to open Control Panel | Fonts first, select the fonts in question, and look at their properties to get the actual filename. Then you can just copy them to a USB stick or the like. In Windows 7, there's no Install command in the Fonts folder; I believe you just right-click on the font (on the HD or the flash drive) and choose Install.

    Actually, I'm looking at my XP setup, and if I look at the Fonts folder in C:\WINDOWS\Fonts, the actual font names are reflected. In Details view, both font name and filename are listed. Bradley Hand is BRADHITC.TTF.
